There, 49 patients ranging in age from 20 to over 60 had "foreign objects" removed from their anus or rectum.

Northumbria Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust treated 11 adult patients over the period — all of them men.

It was a trend matched across the country as the vast majority of patients were blokes.

The true nationwide total is likely to be much higher.

The Sun Online gathered figures in a Freedom of Information request to 110 NHS acute trusts in England. Of these, 46 either refused to give figures or did not respond in time.

THERE'S almost no end to the variety of foreign objects that may find their way into the back passage of some patients. The range seems limited only by human imagination.

Most people who do this are men, often with a sexual motive. While it’s good to explore one’s sensuality, shoving things like candles, spray cans, and Christmas ornaments up the rear end is taking it too far.

Other reasons for inserting objects into the rectum include mental health problems, sexual assault, and body packing to conceal drugs.

Whatever the reason, it’s dangerous. The object itself can cause injuries, such as perforation or bleeding, especially if is large or has sharp edges. Glasses and bottles may break, increasing the damage.

And attempts to remove the item oneself can make things much worse. This can lead to haemorrhage, peritonitis, sepsis, or even death.

Once the person attends A & E, or less often the GP surgery, there are often explanations such as “I fell onto this wine glass, you see.”

Sometimes x-rays help locate the object, but not always. Removing the object can be a challenge. If it can’t be safely reached with instruments, it may need an op.
